This blog began about a year ago, out of a moment of inspiration that now belongs to another life. What’s been built here doesn’t deserve to die. But I will leave it here for now. I’m sure it will be safe until - or if - it’s needed again.
A new life is waiting. I’ve gone chasing it. I hope you’ll come with me.
I’m thinking of starting fresh.
I’m thinking of taking this entire blog and reworking it. Doing a mass delete of old shit, and starting with a tabula rasa, so my new life (as it has been building for nearly a year now) has a place to grow.
Also, there is the matter of deciding whether or not I should keep this URL and just brush it up, or start a new blog to go along with the new life, and the new year.
Hmm. Pondering.
Using my thanksgiving break to catch up on riven…and then I got thrown in jail. So I take it that there’s no exploring for me here?
Why do you have to break my heart like this *dramatic single tear* remembering that those areas are not, in fact, explorable still hurts. That’s a contender for my favourite place in the series and… *another dramatic single tear*
That absolutely is my favorite place in the series. I used to play a Riven game to this point, then save it and stop it just so I could go to this scene whenever I wanted. Watch the Rivenese man walk back and forth across the bridge. Dream about what it must be like to live in a pod village inside a tree, walking the labyrinthine rope bridges and being surrounded everywhere I go by that warm and enveloping yellow light that seems to beam from every window.
I really love Tay, is what I’m trying to say.
I love it so goddamn much.
“There’s a tremendous difference between alone and lonely. You could be lonely in a group of people. I like being alone. I like eating by myself. I go home at night and just watch a movie or hang out with my dog. I have to exert myself and really say, oh God, I’ve got to see my friends ‘cause I’m too content being by myself.” -Drew Barrymore
This came up on my dash at the perfect time.
I need to learn to be happy alone.
I really do.
Because it’s starting to ruin me to the core of all that I am.
Time for making some changes.
You and me both, my dear.
Sometimes you need to remind yourself that you were the one who carried you through the heartache. You are the one who sits with the cold body on the shower floor, and picks it up. You are the one who feeds it, who clothes it, who tucks it into bed, and you should be proud of that. Having the strength to take care of yourself when everyone around you is trying to bleed you dry, that is the strongest thing in the universe.
Reasons to feel like I’m strong.
